On Monday I was fortunate enough to attend the first screening of The Incredible Hulk, and I have to say if anyone had any doubts about this movie you can put them to rest. This movie kicks ass! It is a action packed Hulk smash fest. The only criticism I can give this movie is that in trying to avoid the mistakes of the first Hulk you could say that they went a little over board. In that the first film was seen as being a little overwrought and self serving in its depiction of the psychological underpinnings of the rage and anger that turns Bruce Banner into the Hulk. While this film focuses less on the melodrama of Dr. Banner and his personal relationships. It really concentrates most of its energy in creating an extremely fast paced Big Budget action movie, and I must say it is one damn good extremely fast paced Big Budget action movie.
